Why Did Police Raid the Home of This Military Vet and Gun Rights Activist?

The northern Virginia apartment of a prominent libertarian and gun rights activist was raided by police just days after he posted a video on YouTube of him apparently loading a shotgun in Washington D.C.’s Freedom Plaza.

This is not Kokesh’s first clash with authority. He previously had his honorable discharge from active duty downgraded to general under honorable conditions for wearing his uniform to an anti-war protest. He also once heckled Sen. John McCain during the 2008 presidential campaign and was briefly detained by authorities.
